Wagons are the best

24

Suspension is all ripped out along with a bunch of interior, tomorrow I’ll attack the exhaust, differential and auto trans.

25

Dropped, but not all the suspension together so it’s all coming back apart anyway, waiting on a few more parts.

Interior coming apart nicely, located a set of ultra rare modena vaders I may purchase, hoping to get the dash out and swapped next week, depending on if I go with modena carpet or black carpet.

towing? lbs?

29

Never looked it up. :lol:

Like I said, I dont really care as I’ll never tow with it. I’m sure it could pull a jetski or two.

30

Look it up damn it :slight_smile:

If I could get away with towing ~1000 lbs (including trailer), I might look into finding one for myself.

Everywhere I look it says towing not recommended. One page did say 1200kg towing limit but I dunno if that was accurate or not.

32

It’s in the manual, but I havent gone and looked. There was a factory tow hitch option IIRC.

33

Mike, you must find out. This post will self destruct in 30 seconds.

34

BOOM

35

Rick, you could easily tow a bike with a light trailer like mine… you could do it with a neon. If you’re not a moran when you drive with the trailer, it’ll be fine.

36

Rick, Ill look for an official spec tomorrow for ya.

37

looks good!

38

that is a very pretty wagon, with some very pretty shoes

39

did you get this from buffalo? i remember seeing a car just like this being trailerd home? if it was you the car was in really good shape on the trailer!

It was on a trailer in buffalo for awhile, as I was in Buffalo with it for 48 hours before bringing it back to Rochester.
